Classification of SQL Injection Attacks and using Encryption as a Countermeasure.
Main Article Content
Abstract
This paper is devoted to evaluation of the vulnerabilities of web application to the various classes of SQL injection attacks and the
countermeasures that can be used to put a check on them. The reason for the vulnerability is the use of limited set of attack pattern by the web
developers during evaluation. This paper also presents an improvement over the existing countermeasure techniques by proposing a new defence
mechanism that includes encryption and decryption of data entered in the login parameters.
